Michael Irvin reveals the Cowboys decision that ‘pains him’

Michael Irvin is not happy that the Dallas Cowboys failed to take advantage of what he sees as a major opportunity.

Irvin was critical of the Cowboys for not tapping into the knowledge that former quarterback Troy Aikman could have offered. Aikman is now advising the Miami Dolphins, which Irvin says “pains him.”

“It does pain me to see that,” Irvin said. “I mean, I think it’s criminal for any club not to try to just glean as much as you can from a guy like Troy Aikman, whose job is to go and talk to teams, talk to coaches, and bring an understanding of what’s going on behind the scenes to the world.”
